Israel and the U.S. and Israel have been pushing for conflict with Iran for almost a decade and while I’m no fan of the Iranian regime, they have shown extreme restraint considering the saber rattling the west and Israel have done. The militia groups are a direct result of U.S. Israeli aggression toward Palestinians, Lebanese, and Iran directly.

Edit: Minor to opening sentence.

I want to minimize Palestinian suffering as much as possible. There is clearly a worse option and no alternative to Trump and Harris. There's only one way to reduce harm. I hate that I have to keep doing this lesser of all evil shit but that's what we're living with right now.

Good. Bye bitch.

Who cares. This isn't about Biden. This is about what's good for the country. JFC. These people have completely lost any semblance of doing things for the public good.

But giving $1k to people was blasphemous because they could buy groceries and pay rent. This country is an awful place.

It's a better prediction model. There's no reasoning because it's not understanding anything you're typing. We're not closer to general ai.

They were pushed out by a foreign nation (Israeli) lobby. Let's not forget how this happened.

Oopsie. I committed another war crime. Ssssssoooooorrrrryyyy

As a Russian Jew who fled the Russia in the 1980s, my family moved for our safety and opportunity. Countries don't deserve reverence just for being countries. We can be proud of our heritage without having to show allegiance to a nation state. Especially, when it is using our ethnicity/religion to brutally wipe out and massacre a civilian population.

Just do what is best for you and your family.

This is institutional investors driving up price and then pulling out. Bitcoin is propped up by absolutely nothing other than betting. It has no use outside holding a value. Someone will be a bag holder. It’s just a matter of time.

Because healthcare has been gutted and carved out by monied interests for 60+ years and they all have too much money at stake to let people just get affordable healthcare. They’re all busy skimming off the top. It’s absolutely sickening.

I was always told that billionaires are so caught up in their work and are constantly making money and hustling. This man has more time on his hands than a homeless dude. And he owns like 4 companies? Just goes to show that this is all part of the mythologizing of wealthy people and in their boredom they develop the most perverse self perspective that idolizes themselves. They also surround themselves with yes men who help perpetuate their ego until it grows out of control and turns them into fascists.

Just a thought.

Thank fucking god. Jfc. We passed some horseshit add on by republicans last time. I’m so glad we didn’t fall for it.

Well considering she made the purchase a couple weeks before there was an announcement of a new chip plant in China. The game is rigged folks.

This. Cornel west and Jill Stein are not options in this. If you live in a safely blue state, go ahead vote your heart out.

But just know that there is no scenario where West or Stein win. If that doesn't happen and Trump wins, we will not have another election. Trump is literally going to put the most evil anti democracy zealots into very powerful roles. And with a Republican scotus, we will be fucked. That is the outcome here. So you can be pragmatic or vote your conscience but the risk is that we will be fucked.

If there's one thing that 2016/2020 should have taught us is; presidential elections matter not just because of who is leading the country but who is selecting judges and filling very important roles in the government. Ultimately, our lesson should be that things can always get worse.

You know Joe has a point when the only thing he and his administration is able to come up with in response to the allegations is “it’s not genocide”.

According to the United Nations, genocide is an internationally recognized crime that involves an act with the intent to destroy a national, racial, ethnic, or religious group, in whole or in part. These acts include: 

  • Killing members of the group 
  • Causing serious mental or physical harm to members of the group 
  • Deliberately inflicting conditions of life on the group that would cause physical destruction 
  • Imposing measures to prevent births within the group 
  • Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group

This doesn’t even include the genocidal rhetoric coming from Knesset members.

It’s pretty clear the administration is on its back foot because no one believes Israel or the U.S. Hell, the majority of his base doesn’t agree with him.

This is pretty telling:

Polling on Israel Gaza

You're damn right pornhub pulled out.

Republicans in a race to the bottom to figure out who can say the stupidest thing possible. Between this and Jewish space lasers, I think the competition is heating up.

Wake me up when Biden actually does something about it. Til then this is just bullshit media fodder.

I am a seasoned professional that has over a decade in my field with very solid experience to match. And yet, I am simply getting either no response or a decline altogether. During Covid, I interviewed for over 30 positions. Some were promising but others I declined. I’m hearing crickets right now. It’s wild.

The reason there’s no organization man is because people in the current times have been exposed to the lie that is being part of the organizational “family”. Since employers are willing to discard employees like they are trash and cut pay and benefits while spouting the rhetoric of being a part of the family really laid bare how all of it was a PR campaign. I will change jobs as frequently as I need to keep advancing my career. If employers don’t deliver on their promises, I don’t need to show them any loyalty.

As someone who works in tech consulting with lots of private equity owned companies, this shit has to stop. They’re segmenting healthcare in a way that is just destroying quality of care. I’m by no means a proponent of the mass consolidation that was happening post Obamacare but having for profit companies carve out specialty care and over charge insurance companies for the privilege while fucking the patients is not the answer. Healthcare needs to be a non for profit endeavor where schooling is affordable, pay isn’t absurd, and services are subsequently affordable for patients.

Nor do they want to rescue the hostages. It’s all an excuse to carry out death. In Gaza and the West Bank.

A good portion of windows users are corporate/business users. They're not going anywhere.

He did the same pitch 8 years ago saying he's good to the LGBTQ community and anyone that falls for this schtick is either a Rube or just coming out of a coma.

She should tell her husband to stop doing end arounds on congress and stop shipping weapons to Israel.

Everyone is trying to cash in before it all collapses because big tech has just turned into what I dub as hype hopping since they have no good ideas.

There's a British medical journal called lancet that estimates the deaths at 186,000. Remember. The death counts stopped changing much in like February or March because Israel destroyed the Gaza Health ministry which is responsible reporting.

I remember when the CEO did a ted talk about the pun and everyone was so impressed because he came from apple. It just goes to show how much of tech is made up of sales people and consultants while good talent is truly hard to find.

A completely sick society.

These people shouldn’t be comfortable going to sleep without being reminded of the atrocities being committed with their tax dollars.

Oh fuck all the way off.

I remember seeing reports that Tesla models outside of the cybertruck have tanked. Goes to show which assholes are still clinging to this turd of a brand. Btw I saw that the panels above the door are glued to the body. Lol

Enjoy your shit cars folks.
